Police Chen Shu

Zhengming District Criminal Investigation Brigade.

Sitting in his messy office, Li Meng, who was left behind by Chen Shu and others, became more and more angry as he thought about it. He is usually so busy that his feet don't touch the ground, but now he is half-distracted from his work, and he just got angry with himself for most of the day.

In the end, he found a reason to convince himself to settle down and start working. Through the information obtained from Chen Chuan's records during the day, Li Meng successfully obtained Sister Hua's personnel information and call list from the public security intranet.

After pulling down a bunch of call lists before she lost contact, Li Meng settled down and began to check the people who had contacted Sister Hua recently one by one.

An hour later, Li Meng leaned on the office chair in disappointment.

"During the period when the crime happened, Sister Hua's call list records were very few, and several numbers could withstand investigation and scrutiny, and the owner of the number did not have the conditions to commit the crime. Judging from the communication records, there was no useful clue. "

Wiping his face vigorously, Li Meng touched the mouse again and opened another system in the intranet. I started to check the takeaway records, hotel registrations and courier sites associated with Sister Hua, but I still found nothing.

According to the usual case-handling procedures, at this moment, according to the time when Sister Hua disappeared, all the video surveillance on Lianhua Road and the video surveillance of all the hotels and hotels on the street should be directly investigated.

But this kind of investigative work of looking through the surveillance system consumes a lot of manpower and time. It is not a major criminal case. Even as the deputy captain, he cannot use the scarce police force at will.

Li Meng looked at the thick pile of case information that had just been printed out in his hand, and frowned. After thinking about it, he finally took out his mobile phone and called a few highly qualified and capable generals under him into the office.

Li Meng placed both hands on the table, and said casually: "It's been a long time since I've dealt with a case, and I can't think clearly. Actually, it's not a big case. I just wanted to ask you something."

"Let me tell you, Li Da, we know everything."

"It's strange. Is there something else you don't know, Li Da?"

"Li Da, you don't want to test us, do you?"

Everyone was chattering, and the tone of their voices revealed the unquestionable confidence of the criminal police.

Li Meng rubbed his nose and asked, "Where do you think those high-end ladies and peripherals get business? Ah no, it's where they do business when they get business?"

In the personnel carrier during the day, Li Meng has always been worried about the prostitution weapon mentioned by Chen Shu - "homestay".

"Express hotel."

"That's right, it's similar to that kind of roadside hotel."

"High-end? Does it count in the car?"

The answer was not ideal. Li Meng interrupted the discussion of several people, took out his mobile phone, called several young police officers in the brigade, and repeated the same question.

The same conclusion was reached, Li Meng frowned and did not speak.

A group of criminal police around the desk knew that their deputy captain was not satisfied with their answer, so they all shut up obediently at the moment.

"Da Li, can I say a few words?" A young-looking policeman standing in the corner asked with his hand raised.

"explain."

The young policeman organized his speech and said, "Short-term rental housing is popular now. The young lady rents a house with a high-end decoration and neighborhood from the landlord. The rent is only for three months, and it is only used as a gun house. It expires. If the house is lost, they won't even ask for a deposit.

"Because it's impossible for the young lady's business to be fully booked every day, she will short-term rent this house to those in need outside of her schedule, for a day or a few days, so as to spread out the expensive rent."

New knowledge, but still can't be connected with Sister Hua's disappearance. Li Meng nodded calmly, motioning for the other party to continue talking.

"Well, there is another kind of homestay. Now the ladies have also learned well, knowing that hotels and guesthouses are easy to be tracked down by the police. So after receiving the order on WeChat, they will directly place the order on the mobile phone software for those hidden in the community. homestay."

With a "boom", Li Meng abruptly pushed aside the table and chairs and stood up.

He hurriedly asked the young policeman: "Repeat what you said just now. Wait, don't repeat. Wechat, Momo, mobile phones, and online chat apps are all used by WeChat now. Who would be stupid? How many calls?

"If it's inconvenient, you can send a text. If the customer wants to test the sound, he can send a voice. If he really wants to contact his counterpart, he can also chat directly. It's even no problem to make a video inspection. Once the order is placed, attach a location and work together!

"Once the sale is over, you can choose to block or delete the account. You don't have to worry about it! You have to pay for the phone call! It's not worth it, and it's troublesome to operate. In the end, you may have to go back to WeChat to post the location."

Li Meng clapped his hands together, and finally gave himself a reasonable explanation.

No wonder Chen Shu didn't mention the mobile phone call list in the previous premise. It turns out that this ancient skill has been obsolete by the times without knowing it.

I have to start checking WeChat in the future!

Li Meng was filled with emotion, and when he came back to his senses, he found that a room full of policemen were staring at him and listening eagerly.

He waved his hand to let all his subordinates leave the office.

After the office became quiet again, Li Meng, who was alone, stood by the window, looked in the direction of the special police brigade, touched his chin and said to himself:

"Should we conduct a comprehensive investigation in accordance with the working mechanism of the suspected homicide of missing persons?"

On the transparent window glass, Chen Shu's serious face seemed to appear faintly.

Looking directly at those eyes made Li Meng uncomfortable.

Not far from the entrance of the food stall, next to the well.

Chen Shu squatted beside the well, staring at the inside of the well that had been covered, said "hmm" for a while, and found a reason to hang up the phone.

"Li Meng? What's the matter?"

Chen Chuan, who was standing on the side, was holding an outdoor searchlight facing the well with one hand at this time, and his eyes were also constantly watching the well, as if he was afraid of missing something good.

"Oh, he said that he has an acquaintance in Guangzhou who can help us contact Penguin's executives and obtain Sister Hua's WeChat chat records."

"Blow it, how is it possible? If this can be called out, I will take his surname! Don't say this is just a kidnapping case, if it is a murder case, they won't record it. Hey!"

Although Chen Chuan has been fishing in technical detectives for many years, after all, his daily work and contact are all high-tech technical means, and he will inevitably deal with technology companies like Penguin several times, so his understanding of this company is far beyond Li Meng's own thoughts.

The long sigh at the end obviously has a story.

Chen Shu responded casually, not at all willing to continue this topic with Chen Chuan. His attention was all on the bottom of the well: "Bowen, look slowly, pay attention to safety, we are not in a hurry."

"okay!"

Under the direct light of the high-power searchlight, the originally pitch-black well was as bright as day at the moment, but everything I could see was a black mess of mud, and I couldn't see anything from a distance.

Ma Bowen, who was lying on the edge of the well, held a long hook in his hand and stretched his arms down the well. He fished things into the well one by one, and when he caught the hook, he lifted it up and threw it to the ground.

After a long time, several people watched the pile of dirty things that Ma Bowen picked up and placed on the ground. Chen Chuan washed the pile of things over and over again with several buckets of water that had been prepared.

With the repeated washing of tap water, these things that were originally invisible gradually revealed their original appearance.

"Book, what is this? It looks like a bone to me. It can't be a human bone, right?"

After flushing several buckets, Chen Chuan squatted down and reached out to rummage through them, picking out a few bones with different shapes from the pile of dirty things.

Chen Shu possessed himself and picked out all the suspected bones inside. He had never been to the vegetable market, and he seldom went to the kitchen, so he couldn't tell whether these were human bones or pig and cow bones.

He called over to the proprietress of the food stall whose hands were still tied, pointed to the nearby well and asked, "Is this well connected to your shop?"

The proprietress of the food stall originally thought that the policemen came to inspect the food and drug industry. But now, seeing a group of them busy around the stinking well for a long time, with serious expressions on their faces, she was a little confused and could only honestly say:

"It's connected to our shop. When we were decorating, it was the pipes installed by the master I hired."
